What's good for the goose

Sir Keir Starmer tried to influence the debate by referring to people in the galleries to strictly disorderly.

“I think Sir Keir should apologise to the House tomorrow.”

From GB News. Link

I think he should apologise.
He should not have deflected from the debate by using a person who was in the public gallery as a defence mechanism.

Paragraph 2130 of Erskine May, often referred to as the “Bible of parliamentary procedure,” provides guidance on how members in debate should conduct themselves. According to this paragraph, members should be brief and directly related to proceedings. Additionally, their statements should not be phrased in a way that is intimidating or seeks to influence debate when referring to people in the galleries. This rule ensures respectful and focused discourse during parliamentary discussions

Starmer made me cringe .

She was not even in the gallery at the time of the event taking place , I do not believe it was intentional and the reply made it an issue.

I don't see any reports of him having apologised

i dont see any apology from sunak either .

I have been thinking about this all week, after watching Prime Ministers Questions on Wednesday, and I have considered the comments made about it on TV and the comments made in this topic, and my conclusion is that both Sunak and Starmer where at fault, in Sunak's case, about a minute or so before he made his unfortunate comment, Starmer had welcomed Brianna Ghey's mother into the Public Gallery, she might not have actually taken her seat, but Starmer knew she was going to be there, so in my opinion Sunak should have had the 'nous' (brains) not to mention the 'woman' comment, and it just goes to show how out of touch he is with reality, he is in his own arrogant little world, and I don't believe he takes any advice from anyone, it is Rishi's way or no way, and after the rout of the Conservatives at the next General Election, it won't be long before Rishi and his family will be on their way to a new life in America, probably in California and good riddance to him, but in his mitigation, Sunak made blunder, a thoughtless gaff, there was no 'malice aforethought' he did not do it on purpose, but Starmer's response, was made with 'malice aforethought' and he used that 'blunder' to cause the maximum political damage to Sunak, and in my opinion his comments were worse than Sunak's blunder, he should not have mentioned the blunder, for the same reason that Sunak should not have said what he said, because Brianna Ghey's, mother was in the Public Gallery, he is as guilty as Sunak is, but in his case it wasn't a thoughtless 'blunder' it was a deliberate and very nasty thing he did, with no regard for how it would have made Brianna Ghey's mother feel.

maybe his "gordon brown " moment .

Yes, that is exactly what I thought, when Gordon Brown called that woman a 'bigot' .
